At some stage in your veterinary career, you will be presented with a juvenile canine patient with osteochondritis dissecans (OCD). A failure to treat this condition can lead to OA and tendinitis down the road. Should you choose arthroscopic treatment or a conservative management approach?

In this case-based webinar, Doctors Sherman and Debra Canapp walk through the diagnostic process, treatment, and rehab options of OCD together with a real-life case.

You will learn:  
 

- Diagnostics used to help confirm the presence of OCD
- Arthroscopic and conservative management pros and cons
- Treatment option details  
  • Arthroscopic treatment  
  • Medical management  
  • Rehabilitation therapy  
  • Regenerative medicine / orthobiologic injections
- Real-life case: history, presentation, diagnostics, treatments, rehab, recovery, and return to function
- Q&A session with the Canapps
